Hey gang...

Haven't been posting for a while, crazy busy doesn't even begin to describe the last 6 months...

Question, do we know of any decent, honest, running S14's for around the 4k mark?

Mileage and bhp are not strictly a concern so long as its not about to grenade itself, there's been enough of that in recent years...

Appreciate your thoughts/comments...

There was one on here for sale this week for 4.5k. Sold within a day, so you need to act quick if they do come up for sale.

Then again, e30topless just bought a complete rusty shitter of an M3 for peanuts, so he might give you the engine for free if you ask nicely.

i think Topless's latest acquisition is in much better condition than that .

Should have put a smiley at the end of my last post...

By all accounts, Topless' new acquisition looked very smart, but he did mention he hadn't decided it's fate yet. Might be worth sending an enquiry his way so that you get first dibs in case he does break it.

And it certainly wasn't peanuts either.
